A young father has paid tribute to the toddler son he almost lost by getting a massive tattoo of the boy’s portrait on the left side of his face.
Christien Sechrist, a 20-year-old from Houston, Texas, had a black and white image of his young son Perseus etched onto the left side of his head in July. But a snapshot of the tattoo is quickly helping the young father to gain national attention after it was shared on Imgur earlier this week.

Is this an isolated incident or does the Apple Watch not work on people with tattoos covering their wrists?

“Reddit user Guine55fan purchased the 42mm SS watch and found himself unable to get any notifications when he placed it on his wrist. In fact, the watch locked up and asked for his password once it would go dark. Guine55fan has a tattooed sleeve that covers his left arm, including the spot on his wrist where the watch rests. Curious to find out why the watch wasn’t working Gunie55fan slid the watch down to an untattooed part of his hand and lo and behold the watch worked beautifully.”

It’s official: Soldiers can now get their arms, legs and most of their bodies covered in tattoos. Face, neck and hand tattoos, however, remain against regulation, with the exception of one ring tattoo per hand. Racist, derogatory and sexist tattoos are also outlawed.
